U+1CF1B "𜼛" Znamenny Combining Mark Povyshe S Kryzhem is a combining mark used in the Znamenny notation system, a form of ancient Russian liturgical chant notation. This specific mark, whose name translates roughly to "raised with a cross," instructs the singer to elevate the pitch of the preceding neume or melodic phrase while simultaneously adding a cross shaped flourish or ornamentation to the musical line. It belongs to a specialized repertoire of diacritical signs that modify the pitch, rhythm, and expressive quality of the chant, preserving the intricate melodic traditions of the Old Believers and Eastern Slavic Orthodox liturgical music.
